A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Why isn't aerial photography as popular? (alien.top)

So I opened a maps website with 360 panoramic images and saw views like this:

Sunrise, shadows and fog. Just some aerostat took a photo and it's beautiful. But I very rarely see aerial photos! There are so many landscape photographers, but they all shoot from their perspective. So why isn't aerial photography as popular?

I actually really want to get in to aerial photography. I'd like to take pictures of clouds. I don't have a drone or a helicopter. I could buy a drone, but in this economy my money is reserved for higher priorities

Well I for one absolutely detest drones, so yeah, not a fan personally.

Gotta make some wings and fly around taking pictures.
